!:tate. Taxes have become very heavy
and relief is anxiously sought by- all
home' owners,
Hand in hand with a more .progres-
sive system of educational finance
must be included a more modern sys-
tem of educational administration. It
a Children
is an accepted Fact that 11 . t
are entitled to equal educational op-
portunities. It is also an accepted fact
that the movement of the population
from rural to large urban areas has
reached , alarming proportions during
the past 'quarter of a •century. It
would appear that an outstanding
contrbutary cause has been the type
of education offered to rural children:
In order to improve the educational
services offered to our rural boys and
girls it may be necessary to institute
a different system of' ducational ad-
ministration with due regard to effi-
ciency, effectiveness and economy.
One of the great barriers to prog-
ress in any field is lack of unity. This
has been true in the field ,of education.
For :eats there have :been numerous
educational associations and organiza-
tions in the province of Ontario but
there 'has never been any definite
form of unity. The result of this has
"been that each group -from time to
time forward to the Department of
Education certain resolutions which
may be contradicted by resolutions
forwarded ;by another group. The task
a estimating the wishes of she •Onrar-
io people becomes very difficult under
these circumstances. It would seem
most logical to bring all these groups
together and create a strong organiza-
tion. qualified by numbers and repre-
sentation to speak for the province in
matters pertaining t7 education. The
teacliers and trustees are not the only
people interested in education, Coun-
cils. Boards of Trade. Manufacturers.
Service Clubs and rural organizations
are mos; vitally interested Would it
not be sound common sense to alta:•
ga:ware all existing bodies and incite
in otherTroops so that by :noes a-

When children play indoors they in-
variably choose an out of the way
place -in corners, behind chairs or in
the cellar—some spot that is poorly
lighted. Much of their -play demands
adequate light if their eyes are to
develop normally. Safeguard your
children's eyes by providing ample
light throughout the entire home.
win- go a long way toward soly-
ing your lighting problems.
• It is wise economy to keep
spare lamps on hand so that
there will be no empty sockets
and lack of necessary light.
• Use bulbs of the proper wad -

are ryand, sinister little faces. They
